1. Psy
For this journal, you will compose a 300-word journal reflecting on types of reinforcement utilized in your childhood (this journal is NOT about punishment).
Think back to your childhood. Give an example of how operant conditioning was used to change your behavior in the form of reinforcement. What type of reinforcement worked best for you when you were in grade school? Was it positive or negative? Did this change in high school? Be thorough and substantive and show your understanding of positive and/or negative reinforcement in your journal submission.
Your journal entry must be at least 300 words in length.
2. Critical thinking
Inductive reasoning leads to the philosophical problem of induction, and conclusions you draw every day are inductive. Reflect on the possibility that these conclusions could turn out to be wrong (false). Explain the limitations of inductive reasoning and how you can improve your critical thinking by being mindful of the fact that most of the conclusions we draw each day are inductive rather than deductive. Explain the difference between strong and weak inductive reasoning. Give at least two examples to illustrate your reasoning.
Your journal entry must be at least 400 words in length. No references or citations are necessary but must be in APA Style formatting if used.
